Cisco is not over not because it has transformation, but not. Those software, web, social media are huge bubbles which can only be catalyst not direct contributor. Social media companies are useless. In China, middle classes called Douyin which is the parent company of Tiktok: electronic heroine. There's saying that once Douyin sounds, you have lost your kids because they won't listen to parents anymore. I like some YouTube car guy channel, because he had 50 years experiences. But how many social media hosts can have the same experiences as him to provide useful information? Those social media, no matter American ones or other ones are all trashes. American kids need to follow their ancestors to learn how to mow, how to babysit, how to negotiate with neighbors to get a good price for their work, how to pray and love neighbors. Immigrants need to learn from Americans how to become honest and upright people, if they had become people like you guys, think about what will happen to you.
Cisco can survive just because we are a manufacture company with high end. We are not some frauds which try to generate bubbles. And we need to stay like this. I mean if there's no Tiktok, no facebook, so what? But if we don't have manufactures which can produce real machines, food and chemicals, what will happen?
Software industry was good not because it is special but because upper class people used to work in this industry. Some frauds want to engage software industry to become higher class, they don't understand frauds will make any industry become a fraud. And now software industry is a fraud. It is like in China, software used to be upper class until managers from H turned it into 9-9-6. So is here. In manufactures, it's hard to cheat because you need real products but frauds are easy to cheat in software industry.
Everyone in Cisco and US, needs to go back to common sense. Think this way, if you put your 10 millions into a bank with the same type of yourself in bank ABCD, will you trust the guy like yourself or will you trust someone real and upright like Marc Holloman? The only way we can survive is fulfill ones duty.
